Cooking Steps

1
1

• Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. • Weigh 200g butter and set aside at room temperature to soften. Weigh 30g cocoa powder. Weigh 310g basic sponge mix.

TIP: Weigh out your ingredients before you start as we've sent extra cocoa powder and basic sponge mix!

• In a medium heatproof bowl, place white chocolate chips. • In a small saucepan, heat coconut cream (see ingredients) over medium heat until just steaming, 1-2 minutes. • Pour cream over chocolate, then stir until melted and combined. Place in fridge to cool, 20-30 minutes.

TIP: You want the cream steaming but not boiling!

• Meanwhile, place softened butter, brown sugar and vanilla-flavoured essence in a large bowl. Beat with electric beaters until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes. • Add the egg and beat until well combined, 1 minute.

• To the bowl, add measured cocoa powder and sponge mix. On low speed, beat until dough just comes together, 1-2 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, stir in crushed macadamia nuts until just combined.

TIP: Beat until the dough just comes together, over- beating can cause the cookies to become tough.

• Roll heaped tablespoons of dough into balls. You should get 15-20 cookies. Divide dough balls between the lined oven trays, allowing room for spreading. Bake for 14-16 minutes or until just firm to touch. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. • Meanwhile, heat a medium frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast shredded coconut, stirring occasionally, until golden, 2-3 minutes. Set aside.
